History
The Armagh Lawn Tennis Tournament was a late Victorian period tennis tournament that was played on hard courts (one of the earliest known). The tournament was organised by the Archery and Lawn Tennis Club in Armagh, Northern Ireland. This tournament was particularly unique, not for it just being a hard court event, it also staged combined events for men and women in both singles, doubles and mixed doubles. However they were not all held at the same time the events were spread out over a three-month period, being played July through to October.
At the inaugural 1878 tournament only a men's singles event was played, that was won by Walter Francis Templer,[3] the brother of Robert Baron Templer. On 27 July 1882, the Armagh LTC Tournament was concluded that featured a women's singles, doubles and mixed soubles event.[4] The women's singles was won by Miss J M McLintock.[5] The women's doubles event was won by Miss. G McLintock and Miss J M Mclintock,[6] and the mixed double's was won by Major Dashwood and Miss J M Mclintock.[7] In October 1882 a second Armagh LTC Tournament was held for the men's singles event that was held won by Robert Barron Templer.Шаблон:Fact
